For those of you who prefer to carry a Pocket PC and a mobile phone as discrete items, finally there is software to manage that duo. Phone Today gives you indicators on the Today screen of your Pocket PC for battery charge level, wireless signal strength, GPRS availability, new SMS messages, and the amount of SMS storage. To be honest, this software seems pointless to me when using a cable connection. Unless you have a 25' cable connecting your Pocket PC and mobile phone, you don't really need that information replicated, since your phone is right next to your PDA on your lap, on your desk, or wherever. This software teamed with Bluetooth, however, is extremely impressive. You'd know your mobile was about to die even if it were in your briefcase in the back seat of your car on the way to work, while you were checking your To Do list on your Pocket PC. That's very nice.
